Advanced Directives
Elmhurst Outpatient Surgery Center does not honor Advance Directives, however, we will place a copy of any Advanced Directives or Durable Power of Attorney documents that you may have in your medical chart for reference by another facility in the case of a transfer.
If you do not currently have Advanced Directives in place and would like information, you can contact the Illinois Department of Public Health at 217/782.4977 or obtain information directly from one of the following websites:
